FOLLOW MY LEADER.

The game may be made very amusing il
the leader have wit enough to set his follow
ers such tasks rs they can just manage to ac-
complish by dint OF great cXertion. For i'll
stance, we have heard OF leader who made
some of his followers, they being somewhat
of the fat type Of boys, crawl through the
very narrow windows of an Clubhouse, at the
imminent risk of sticking in the middle in
their zeal to stick to their leader The sailors
on board ship often play at this game when
they are turned up" on fine afternoon, 10
"skylark" or enjoy themselves; and
Capt. Marryat tells a tale of an
impudcnt fellow OF sailor leader,
who, after leading his followers n wild goose
chase all over the ship, ran off TO the galley
fire and blacied his face with the SCOT All
the men had to do the same thing; and as
they followed their leader, shouting and
laughing, he led them t. the end Of the main
yard, and dropped of into the sea. OF course
it was a point of honor to follow him, and
sailors are not the men to hang back In such
q case; but some of them, who could not
swim, were nearly drowned, The sailor was
called before tue captain to be reprimanded;
and touching his hat very respectfully, ex-
cused himself on the ground that the men
were all so dirty, he thought u little washing
would do them wiereurrn the captain
laughed, and said no more about the matter

Animals and Their weapons.

One OF the most interesting phases of ami
NAL life, says Golden Days, is that relating to
the methods of defense with which all ami
mails are provided by nature.
The larger animals in general are provided
with weapons more or less effective. The
carnivores have sharp teeth with which they
rend their prey, and the tuothless ant caters
have enormous claws, capable of killing a
man.
Many reptiles use their tails to strike down
their game, while large number of animals
are supplied with pungent odors or secretions
that are equally potent rs defense. In GER
tain groups we find enormous horns and
of protection. In some cases they are upon
the top of the head, as in our cows or oxen.
Again, as in the elephant or some cetaccans,
they are highly developed teeth.
Our common horned animals depend upon
their head weapons for defense They are of
two distinct kinds and subject to n marvel.
Gus variation in the different families
One group, represented by the common
COW, Is called the hollow horned ruminants,
because the weapons are hollow and perSis-
tent-that is, they are never shed except in
one instance, the prong-horned antelope.
Some birds have equally strange appen-
dages. Thus, the spur wing and the yacana
have strong hooks like spurs or horns upon
their wings, in a position that a terribly
lacerating blow can be struck, calling to
mind the surgeon fish, that has lance con-
cealed in the side Of the tail that can be
thrown out at the slightest warning, and by
a side motion of the tail cause considerable
damage to an enemy.

WREN AND NEgT.

Birds that build early IN tie spring require
warmth and shelter for their young, and the
blackbird and the thrush line their nests with
a plaster of loan, perfectly excluding the
keen, icy gales of the season. The house
sparrow commonly builds under the caves Of
houses, and collects great mass of straw and
hay and n profusion Of feathers. The wood
pigeon and the Jay construct their nest so
slightly that their eggs may be almost seen
through the loosely collected materials; but
the goldtinch forms its cradle of fine moses
and lichens, lined with the down of the thistle.
and is model for beautiful construction.
The golden crested wren builds its nest with
the utmost attention to warmth, while the
whitethroat and blackcup do not attend TO
this particular. The greenfinch places its
rude nest in the hedge with little regard to
concealment, while the chalinch, just above
1t In the elm, bides its neat nest with the most
cautious care One bird must have hole in
the ground; to another n crevice in a wall or
chink in tree is indispensable. The bull
finch requires fine roots for its nest; the gray
hycatcher will have cobwebs for the out
works of its shed. All the parus tribe except
the individuals above mentioned select some
hollow Ii. a tre~ or granny in n wall. End
less examples might Indeed be found of the
dissimilarity of requirements in these con-
structions among the several associates OF our
groves, our hedges and our houses
An equally diversified variety exists IN the
eggs hat are laid in these nests and in the
manner the mother birds trest their young,
all of which may be told about at some future
time in this column.
